Sponsors Needed

We invite you to help people empower themselves to lead fulfilling lives and make a difference in their communities and in the world!

The National Coalition for Mental Health Recovery is excited to announce the 36th annual Alternatives Conference, will be held virtually: November 2, 3, and 4, 2022.

We look forward to connecting nationally and internationally with old friends and colleagues, and to making new connections. We invite all of you to join us from wherever you are. We’re excited about having a virtual conference this year so that everyone from anywhere can attend! Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, the conference is free of charge to attend. Additional sponsors are still needed. Thank you for considering a contribution.

GET INVOLVED

This exciting event will virtually bring together approximately 600 grassroots stakeholders, representing diverse populations. There will be four days of inspiring keynotes, stimulating workshops, interactive caucuses, and other events focused on leadership development, innovation, inclusion, peer support, recovery, creativity, healing, spirituality, and wellness. Alternatives 2021 will offer in-depth technical assistance on peer-delivered services and self-help/recovery methods, and provide participants with an extraordinary opportunity to join with peer leaders from across the U.S. to share inside information on the “how-to’s” of creating, implementing, and sustaining cutting-edge programs; evaluation methodology; and effective organizing techniques.

GAIN VISIBILITY

Now is your chance to showcase your organization’s commitment to the first national conference created by and for individuals with lived experience of mental health conditions or substance use issues who sought traditional services or alternatives such as peer-run services. It has been a beacon of hope for thousands of people living with mental health challenges—motivating, inspiring and equipping them to live their best lives.

BUILD AWARENESS

Your sponsorship package will provide needed resources to make Alternatives 2022 a success. It will also give you a chance to showcase your organization’s commitment to mental health! We consider your sponsorship a partnership supporting the empowerment of individuals with lived experience, and building and sustaining recovery pathways across our nation.
